    just my luck (betislands racebook)

    I have been playing at heritage the last two weeks and just went back to betislands. I for some strange reason thought they changed their payouts. I just hit a freaking 631.00 dollar pick 3 and they paid me 101.00 dollars.. **** me. I forgot all about their rules

    Cris or 5 Dimes is where you want to bet your ponies.

    According to their limits (see below), you should be getting $401. Still way too low for a pick-three limit for a major Book.
    MAXIMUM PAYOUTS
    • WIN 25-1 PLACE 12-1 SHOW 8-1
    • DOUBLES, QUINELLAS, EXACTAS 200 -1

    Correction: The above odds are for A tracks only. OP does only get $101 for a $600-plus Pick Three. OUCH!

    BTJ,

    If you don't win next time you can always ask for our 20% cash rebate on all your losses monthly we credit that as cash with no rollover you can cash out or keep playing at will.

    Cheers!

    Never ever bet horses offshore

    It is the biggest sucker bet you can ever make

    Play with legal usa shops hooked into totes

    Shitty advice. Play at Cris or 5-Dimes where you get up to 8% in rebates on your action. Plus your bets don't influence the pari-mutual odds (and you get full track odds).

    PS How's that OKC series bet looking? Yep, we should take your advice on wagering.

    Hedger your clueless

    Betting at 5 dimes or Bookmaker is not tote betting meaning your bets are not automatically going into track pools

    They can easily say after a big win you bet too late, ect

    Its unregulated

    Bet at legal usa shops only as far as horses, unlimited payouts without delays

    Bets are time stamped, so there's no problem verifying. Also, a large Book like Cris is not going to stiff a legit big winner--it's bad for business. Hard to believe you would try to sway action from a top-rated SBR sponsor Book--who pays your salary in part. Now that's clueless.

    The USA shops make it real easy to cash out and move money. For me, that's where their advantage ends. Their rebates are awful compared to the offshore books.

    If you're always looking to cash out, the USA shops would be best. If your confident in keeping money offshore, the rebates are very solid. But you have to watch where you bet, and the limits on payouts.

    Remember there are many states in the US where pari-mutual betting is illegal, and you can't bet horses with any of the legal shops.

    So many people have no choice but to go offshore.

    yeah. i was playing at heritage the last week and they pay full track odds, and forgot about their payouts there. Honestly it was a 12 pick 3 and it had pretty much all the favs. if it hit i was expecting a 30-40 dollar payout. I was very surpised to see a 2-1,5-1, and 2-1 pay 633.00 dollars.. all were 6 horse fields too. I debated this morning wheather to deposit at heritage or betislands. Both have been good to me. Jon and the guys are great for stuff and i love the payouts. I decided to go back with them because of that. I am just kicking myself for costing myself 533.00 dollars. It sucks but its my fault for not remembering the payouts.

    Anyone playing horses at unregulated horse books has lost their minds unless your making low stakes wagers or payouts are low stakes

    LOL..................win 75,000 at 5 Dimes on a lucky triple and you will get 20 excuses why the bet does not count, Tony is biggest creep in the industry. I would never give that book one dime.

    Be smart

    And what's your excuse for not betting at CRIS--are they going to stiff you too? How many other A+ Books should I avoid?

    I have always said from day 1 never play horses at offshore books

    That is not their strength

    A+ or D

    If you want to bet $2-$20 win bets fine play anywhere

    If you bet exotics you are crazy betting offshore
